Phantom Cabaret [Glam At Midnight] by RagnaRose

Behind the curtains lies a cabaret of whispers and power plays — a place where the audience watches, but the Phantom decides what is truly seen.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

[Intro]
"When the curtains open, the show begins..."
"And I'm its director."

[Verse]
Come
Just one step closer 
Come
Let me take over 
Look
Under the hardcover
Try
To ask for an encore

[Prechorus]
I'm the shadow that glows when the lights go wrong 
I'm the silence that sings when you clap along
There's more to discover, if you dare to play along
Don't hesitate, don't make me wait too long...

[Breakdown]
"You see what you don't think you see."

[Chorus]
This is my game, dare to join the fray
But you don't get to choose the way I play (Oh, no!)
Now give me that cute rose bouquet 
Sit down, behave... this is the Phantom Cabaret
This is my game, dare to look away
Now sit back and let me lead you astray
This show is insight yet your dismay
Sit down, behave... this is the Phantom Cabaret (Oh yeah...)

[Verse]
Look
As I shed one more layer 
Look
How I'm answering to your prayer 
Try
To be more than just the player 
Try
To earn my gaze and my favor

[Prechorus]
Look right through me, find just a mirror
I'll hear your plea, you won't get any nearer
You think you hold the key, but I'm still the bearer
See what we could be, but you're still not the winner

[Breakdown]
"The more I unveal... the less you know."

[Breakdown]
"Since you insist... let's play... and if you win, I might even... look at you twice."

[Bridge]
I'm the composer, I pull the threads
Sequins glow, I raise heads
You think my mask is now in shreds
Take off one glove, see through your lens

[Outro]
"Be my guest... if you dare."
